Hi together,

I have a question for the evidence part.

The first year here in the US, we had a joint account which we closed out since we were very dissatisfied with the banks service.

Well from that bank account we do only have two or three bank statements. The new one we only have since December, Well would that be enough?

The three from the old one are all from 2012 which was my year of entry.

Thank you so much for your help.

Do you have proof from the previous bank showing that it was closed? Since you only have 3 statements from the previous account there's nothing more you can do to get more statements. However, if there are more statements you can provide with the new bank account I would suggest to get one for every month - yes your application will end up looking like an encyclopedia but one thing I've learned is the more the better. Oh and get your current bank to write you a reference letter stating when you opened up an account with them so that there is continuation between the two banks.

Also maybe you can write a brief explanation on your cover letter regarding the banks.

Hope this helps!

ROC Journey:

4/24/13 - Submitted I-751 application

4/26/13 - I-751 officially filed

6/11/13 - Biometrics done

8/14/13 - Rec'd RFE

9/21/13 - Submitted RFE response

9/23/13 - RFE response rec'd at VSC

(about 2 months later)

11/21/13 - Service request via Tier 1 submitted

12/11/13 - Response to service request rec'd - vague info about processing times

12/12/13 - Service request via Tier 2 submitted

12/10/13 - APPROVED!!! (letter rec'd 12/14/13)

12/16/13 - 2nd Service request response rec'd

12/17/13 - Card production email/text rec'd (online case updated)!

12/24/13 - Notification rec'd via email regarding card mailed on 12/23/13 (online case updated as well)

12/26/13 - 10-yr card rec'd!

One thing I have learned on this journey:

There is no such thing as an "overkill" evidence package. Submit anything and everything you can. Who knows what will prevent you from getting an RFE.

USCIS doesn't expect you to do all joint accounts on day one. If a joint account is done after 3 months, that should still be a valid evidence of sound marriage. You should be fine with the joint account you have now. Make sure that you mention these facts in your covering letter and include the first statement and last statement and a few in between at 1 per quarter and you should be fine as far as this evidence is concern. I trust you have other evidence in tact.
